About this episode
In this episode, Carina shares an inspiring quote from Charlie Mackesy’s beloved book The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse and explores its deeper meaning. She reflects on the idea that we are all meant to "fly"—to embrace our potential, lean into our uniqueness, and rise beyond our fears. Join her for a conversation about self-discovery, creativity, and the power of recognizing what makes you truly special.
